Re: BXT 2025 New 29er T1000 Carbon MTB Hardtail Frame - MTB-066 I like the price and the low weight, and BXT has been around for a while. I have never used their stuff but lots of people have.  So I would not expect you to have any greater chance of issues with this frame.  If you like the specs and features I would say go for it. 

Personally I would not go with this frame for 2 reasons and if you don't care about my reasons then feel free to ignore me. ;D  First, the 27.2 seat post is very restrictive if you want to run a dropper.  I have the Light Carbon 914 frame and the 27.2 seat post and my long legs( lots of exposed seat post) means I can not run a dropper of any kind do to the short length of the available 27.2 dropper posts.  Even if I could run one, I would be limited to 125mm or less.  My main concern is just the fact that I can't fit any dropper but if you are a long dropper kind of person this is extra bad.  Second, if he cables through the headset are also a show stopper for me.  The 914 has this as well and while I just switched to a new headset that gets the cables out from inside the bearing, they still go through that area and I am not a fan.  I am actively looking at the carbonda hard rail as it still has the down tube cable ports.

Re: BXT 2025 New 29er T1000 Carbon MTB Hardtail Frame - MTB-066 The Meinier Snake is worth a look. It has slightly more modern geometry and with a 31.6 seat tube it's easier to fit a dropper.

Re: Meinier Snake build, how did I do? Nice looking bike. I did a Meinier Snake build a couple of months ago and it went OK except for that headset nightmare!

Re: Meinier Snake build, how did I do? I've got something similar to this on my gravel bike so I can run a normal stem with a frame that has headset routing.
